Recent immigrant to the USA in need of new friendships and escapism in these dark times. I love stationery, fountain pens, inks, Japanese papers. I love drawing and watercolouring, although I don't do it as much as I would like. I read a lot and I'm part of two bookclubs. I cook and bake a lot: I'm vegan but my husband isn't so I do it all, I just don't eat it all. I love to spend time with my menagerie: we have one Australian cattle dog, and two cats that were strays. We also take care (TNR, vax) of strays in our complex, there are many! Personality wise: humourous, brilliant! and modest.
